Express seed starting

I used to plant my seed in the soil and wait four or five days to see them popping up. Now I use a Baby Wipe Warmer to get my seeds ready to plant. After just one day I see white stems popping out. Then I put them in the soil or rockwool.

Thanks for the tip, Ron, Keeping the seeds warm and moist speeds up germination.

A horticultural heating mat can be used under a 10-inch x 20-inch tray to keep the seedlings warm as they are starting growth.
